If you are reading this, you are probably on the computer. Most of you are either checking your email, IMing friends, or updating your facebook/mysoace wall of page (whatever it's called).
There are so many ways of communication: writing a letter, calling or talking face to face.
My question is, why are you on the internet instead?
My theory is that most of us (including myself) decide to instant message and email because of fear. We want to be bold, and couragous, but none of us want to see the aftermath of a person when we give someone "tough love", or when we confront someone about a problem we have with them.
We use the internet to hide.
But, what we don't know is that it hurts more when we hide behind a monitor, instead of telling someone that we care, and that we DO love them.
This is probably horribley blunt, but we are all cowards. Yet, there are peices courage in us that we have to do in person. Like telling someone that you love them for the first time (you BETTER not have told them through text).
Fear, courage. What compells you?
